4.5 stars
medium-paced

If someone were to ask me for a mystery/thriller book recommendation, there would be no scenario in which I were eager to have someone read this book

Lots of twists and turns. I read it in a few hours. A fun read!

I finished this book last night.I stayed awake till 3 to finish it I was that invested in the story -It was so good.
I had my suspicions that it was the dad who staged the whole thing and I was right but what I didn’t expect was that the father of the mother killed Marco’s accomplice in the cabin I was shocked.
Also the ending??OMG-
I was staring at the book for 5 minutes after I read the last page
Overall 5 stars well deserved!

Meh - it was ok, definitely not worth the hype (IMO). The story definitely flowed and was an easy read. I definitely called it and knew what happened or at least who was behind it...however I did have to Keep second guessing myself. The ending was very disappointing.
fast-paced

There were A LOT of twists. I loved reading it, the ending was really interesting too
